Voted no friggin way! They made no improvements to the actual eInk screen, the most important aspect of an ereader--same 300ppi screen as my Voyage. They added a few more LEDs, but I'm not too sure why as my Voyage is already way to bright at the highest setting, so it isn't like the screens were too dark. The body design is nothing I would ever care for. It is much to thin (even the thickest part) to comfortably hold in one arthritic hand. Even with a cover on it I'm thinking it won't be thick enough. My Voyage is thicker, and even with the cover on my Voyage it is barely thick enough to hold in one arthritic hand. And what is up with that BS cover?!? I mean, whoopity doo dah they made a super thin, super lightweight ereader. But to do so they had to decrease the battery charge. So to attempt to cover that up (pun intended) they include a costly cover/battery pack. WTF Amazon. How stupid do they think we are. I can only imagine that it will be a long time before decent third-party covers are available due to the battery pack. And to top it off they want $290 USD! If they want my business as far as any new ereaders, then they need to improve the screen and get rid of that crappy light system that degrades the text, and put decent fonts on the effing thing for a change. Until then I'll read on my iPad and iPhone while my Voyage mostly collects dust.
